So here's a progress shot. I finally decided to do the black tiger stripes so this is gonna start moving forward again. I'll probably do a band around the boom, and was thinking of painting the tips of the horizontal stabs red. I reckon nose art will go on just before the last antenna lines so it can get hung without breaking them off.
Only real construction bits that need to happen are some sta-bar weights (I think I'm gonna leave off the missing bits in the rotor system) and to run the antenna down the tail boom.
I reckon TOW pods will go on it eventually, so I may do the sight for those one day.
Not accurate by anymeans, but I took this as the chance to put all the odd little features I found aesthetically pleasing on one bird.
